Tis The Season To Be Melancholy?

Even though it’s the time of year for red and green, we have some “Noir” pieces that will light up your home!

Noir, French for black, was coined in the 40’s and 50’s as a genre of literature and cinema. It is also used to describe high-end fashion that is primarily black and draws inspiration from the Victorian Era. There is also Pinot Noir, a black grape wine, and Coco Noir, a “mysterious” perfume.

But, these pieces are “Noir” in a whole new way.  They are dark, elegant mysterious, but also airy and luminescent with their unique stunning designs.

For example, take this Noir Rose Italian Vintage Chandelier (right). This Circa 1950 piece has a smooth black finish. Hand formed flowers and petals add elegance that is anything but “bleak.” This piece would make the perfect chandelier in a variety of settings.

Vintage Italian Noir Rose Black Floral Pendant (left) is a perfect match to the chandelier. It features intricately twisted vines with rosebuds and leaves. This Circa 1950 basket pedant will make for a grand entrance to a foyer.

We also have a Noir Rose wall-sconce to complete this stunning look. This Vintage Two-Light Hand-Made Noir Rose Wall Sconce has feather details on the shades and rose accents on the sconce arms. This Circa 1940 sconce will add just the right touch of light to a hallway.

These pieces are sure to light up your holidays and leave you feeling anything by gloomy!
